Embarcadero Center is a commercial complex of five office towers and two hotels on a 9.8-acre (4.0 ha) site located off the Embarcadero in the financial district of San Francisco, California.[1] The Trammell Crow, David Rockefeller and John Portman development was begun with Tower One in 1971, with the last off-complex extension, Embarcadero West, completed in 1989.[2] The 4.8 million square feet (445,900 m²) office complex employs 14,000 people and contains retail, dining, and entertainment spaces, and a movie theatre.[1]
